Sept. 25 memorial party to honor Connie Bloom

There will be a memorial party September 25 as a tribute to the late Connie Bloom, premier Ohio fabric art guru and retired BJ Features Department editor/pet columnist.

It will be 3-6 p.m. in Sumit ArtSpace, where Connie was the resident quilt artist.

There will be a sale of Connie’s fine art quilts t benefit the Artists of Rubber City and Summit Artspace.

Elaine Guregian reports that Connie “asked for music from a favorite band, food from Moe’s and beer and wine to be served, so it should be a lively party and a lovely tribute to Connie."

I wouldn’t miss it for the world.

Connie passed away Monday, August 29.
